Hope all are doing well this week....it has been a stressful one for me. I find it odd, that stress and worry often seem to find it's way to me. When one simple little act of kindness to a creature of this world can lead to all sorts of problems and well....discussions with one's spouse.
 

There are stories that will be coming.......but here is a hint. I love this vintage plate with this rooster front and center. Very cute!! But what would this have to do with my story??

Well.....nothing much....other than the fact that it may involve an stray rooster.......and then a hen from a flea market......and a field and a tree....and one stubborn woman.....and now just a few STERN conversations with my husband on the situation I find myself in. Yep, there is a story here and it involves Benny and Betty......stay tuned!

Happy Vintage Thingie Thursday!

One of my long time friends found the sweetest planter at an estate sale. I had a fit over it when I saw it! Now, I go to lots of estate sales, and I have never seen one of these. She said it was there on the last day too. Oh. my.


She dropped by my house shortly after me seeing it and gave it to me as a gift. I was so excited, and thrilled she wanted me to have it. I adore it and am so thankful to have it!


It is stamped Japan on all of the four pieces. It is a wonderful addition to all my doxie treasures.


Here it is with all my other little dogs. No, your eyes are not playing tricks on you. Truth of the matter is, when I took the photo, I discovered a bit of dust on the back of the shelves, and did not want to retake the photo. Call it lazy....but I sure wanted to try and "hide" the dust. Truth. You will just have to use your imagination.


Here is my sweet Sophie.....exactly where she does not belong. On The Table. But I snapped a picture of her anyway...she just wanted to smell the flowers!

Happy Vintage Thingie Thursday!

I picked these two little china pieces one day for 50 cents. I loved the colors and they were perfect for using in a bridal shower I was giving.


They really are not expensive pieces, but they were great for what I wanted to use them for.



One held flowers, and the other held the pens for signing the book. The colors were perfect.

Happy Vintage Thingie Thursday!
